The Egg in Texas Politics.

The large, full-grown egg of several
weeks standing has begun to play an
important role, so to speak, in the Pro-
hibition campaign now being waged in
Texas. One of the results is TO con-
firm the idea that while raw eggs are
very effective in clearing the voice, they
can also be used to advantage in clear
ing stage or platform.
When the Prohibition agitators I'M
dertook to convince the citizens of Ala
mo City that, TO use the alliterative
head lines of an exchange: white
Wheat Whisky Wastes Wealth, Wrecks
Womanhood and Wallops Wives"
they, the orators. having on their goo d
clothes, were not struck very fayorabIy
by the aforesaid audience, particularly
as they were not in possession of Bill
Nye's recipe for removing egg stains
from their garments.
The bar of public opinion is the prop
er place TO decide the question of pro-
hibtion, and any resort to mildew
eggs, or similar d.atribes. is to be dep
recated. When "a man raises his arm
TO deliver such an aromatic testimo-
NAL as an egg on which hen has de.
liberated in vain for several weeks, that
motion is otIt OF order.
Those who object to Prohibition
speeches should adopt some more FEAST
BILE plan of revenge. They might, for
instance, follow the tactics that are in
vogue in Iowa. Under the guise of a
complimentary serenading the objec-
tors hire brass band to loot under the
window of the victim for hours, and no
words can describe what he suffers.
There are more ways of killing a dog
than choking him TO death with butter.
As might have been expected. the
attempt to palm off aged and decrepid
eggs on the cold. water apostles in
Texas has recoiled on those who hurled
the hen fruit 1t often happens that
the thing with which we try to shoot
other people kicks off the head of the
guilty man who is holding it. If Pro-
hibition triumphs in Texas on the fourth
OF August, those eggs will be the un-
conscious cause of the disaster. The
tetotaler, albeit crank, has his rights
under the constitution, one of which is
that he shall not be made TO smell like

great fundamental truth that wine is q

Pain After Reheadinp

In recent communication to the
Paris Societe de Biologie, M. Paul Loye
reported his observations on move
ments in the head after decapitation.
He has found that the mouth opens
somewhat as the head drops. aud that
there sire convulsive movements Of the
tongue and the eyelds; furthermore,
that yawning motion is set in fifteen
seconds and cease in minute and a
half. During this time no evidence OF
voliton is to be observed. and the
movements mentioned differ in no re.
spect from those that take place In an
animal that il in a state Of profound
anmsthesia at the time of decapitation.
The injection of blood into the detached
head prolongs the movements and
even gives rise 10 contraotions of the
facial muscles resembling those that
indicate suffering. about which. how
ever. there seems to be nothing volun-
tary. The experiments were made on
dogs. Paris Register.

farmers have. however. kept their
combined machines In repair and still
do good work with them. II Is at least
an advantage after the short haying
and harvesting season is over to have
but one machine to store through the
remainder of the year.
Low PRICES FOR MACHINE WORK.
Nothing shows the great com petition
in agricultural machinery better than
the reduction in prices of cutting grass
or grain. When the moving machine
first came around farmer furnished
the team while some one owning q
mower drove it and cut his grass for 81
per acre. Now this sum will cut and
bind an acre of wheat or other grain,
the owner OF the harvester paying for
the time, which averages fifteen to
twenty cents per acre. In some parts
of the West where there are large
fields still lower rates are made. but
with out much profit to the man rum
ing the machine. II a farmer be at all
deficient in mechanical ability he need
not regret the fact much If he can get
machine work done at this price. There
are probably enough machines now 10
do the harvesting but breakages and
bad management make room for new
ones every year.
MAKING CHEESE POPULAR
The late Iloratio Seymour, who
with all his public honors and duties
never lost his interest in farming. used
often to urge the extension of the
cheese market by making this product
a part of the rations for soldiers in the
army and by popularzng its use in
other ways. No kind Of God so whole.
some and nutritious is so generally
neglected. We do not use one-tenth OF
the amount of cheese per capita here
that the English do. In Europe, and
espec ally in France. cheese takes the
place of meat, and there are number
of popular eaisly- varieties not
much known here. II farmers would
use up skim-mik in making curd
cheese profitable market for it could
be found in any city or village, and it
would pay better than giving the skim
milk to the pigs. The sale of this curd
cheese does not check the demand for
that made from the whole milk. In
most cases it sets people to thinking
about cheese and thus creates an appe-
lite for both. american CultiUatOr.
